Paul Walker's daughter Meadow shares tribute on late Fast and Furious star's birthday

Meadow Walker has described her late father Paul Walker as her 'best friend' and 'twin soul' in a post to mark what would have been the late Fast & Furious star's 49th birthday.

The actor died in a horror crash in Hollywood in 2013 when he was a passenger alongside Roger Rodas - as their speeding Porsche crashed into a concrete lamp post and two trees before going up in flames.

Taking to Instagram, 23-year-old model Meadow posted a sweet throwback image of the pair alongside clothing from his Do Good Foundation.

" Happy birthday to my best friend and twin soul," she wrote.

"I love you forever and miss you everyday. New @paulwalkerfdn designs out today to celebrate you! Do good, be good."

Fans among Meadow's 3.7 million followers were quick to respond, with one commenting: "Your words have always guided me in my life and still do. Your smile, your moves, your movies, your interviews will always inspire me. Happy Birthday Paul."

Another said: "Your dad was an amazing person! We miss him. Happy birthday Paul."

A third added: "Happy heavenly birthday Paul Walker. You are truly missed by family, friend and fans all over the world."

And a fourth said: "Happy birthday my precious sweet angel. I wish you a wonderful great happy birthday in heaven Paul. We love and we miss you so much you're always in our thoughts and prayers. Thank you for all your memories sweetie we love you once again happy birthday Paul. Thank you Meadow for this lovely picture of you and your dad we love you both so much."

Comedian Pete Davidson is set to become part of the Fast & Furious franchise, meanwhile, despite making a controversial gag about Paul in 2015.

Some of Kim Kardashian's ex's future co-stars are said to be upset about his involvement due to the comment he made while performing as a presenter of Justin Bieber's Comedy Central roast.

"This past year Justin got arrested for drag racing ... Unfortunately, it wasn't with Paul Walker.....What? He's doing great! He's got a movie coming out," Pete controversially quipped on stage.

The gag was so divisive that the television network actually refused to air it in America.
